Although the Republican controlled White House, House of Representatives and Senate have been working to repeal or cripple the ACA, they have yet to be successful. On March 24, 2017, House Speaker Paul Ryan (R-WI) said, “Obamacare is the law of the land. It will remain the law of the land until it is replaced. We will be living with Obamacare for the foreseeable future.” This was after the Republicans failed to get enough support for the American Health Care Act (AHCA), deciding to withdraw it from the floor prior to a vote.

What does all of this mean for employers? Although many expected there to be some sort of change to employer responsibilities as it relates to employee benefits, the reporting and/or the fines associated with the ACA, for now, stand.
